"Jeff is a dear friend and he's been a wonderful showrunner and he will be sorely missed from all of us," tells Entertainment Tonight of the Fuller House creator, who was fired for alleged abusive behavior. "But the show must go on. We'll do that and we hope that we will have a great season."

"I’m heartbroken to be leaving Fuller House," Franklin wrote on Instagram, without specifically addressing the allegations of abusive behavior against him. "Creating and running Full House and Fuller House has been the greatest joy. I wish the cast, my second family for over 30 years, continued success. I’m so proud of all we accomplished together, and beyond grateful to our loyal fans. Adios Tanneritos!"

Franklin has been fired as showrunner and Warner Bros. TV won't renew his overall deal after the studio received complaints about his behavior on set and in the writers room, according to Variety. "Franklin has been accused of being verbally abusive to staffers and making inappropriate statements in the writers room, including making sexually charged comments about his personal relationships and sex life," reports Variety's Cynthia Littleton. "Franklin has not been accused of directly sexually harassing or engaging in physical misconduct with any staffers." Staffers also complained Franklin would bring women he was dating on set and sometimes give them roles on the show.

Ever since Jeff Franklin bought the iconic Victorian house last year for $4 million, he has been renovating it to match the Fuller House set. Franklin, said one neighbor, “is a Hollywood producer who has bought the house for commercial purposes—promoting it as a fan destination, using it for promotional events and filming at the house.” As a result of the renovations and renewed interest thanks to Fuller House, the neighborhood has become even more overrun with tourists, with the neighbor describing the problem as “150-250 or more visitors and 50-75 cars per hour, with 1,000 visitors or more on weekend days.”

“Personally, I’ve given up asking them,” says Jeff Franklin, who created both Full House and Netflix sequel Fuller House, in an interview with TV Line. “The door is open, but I’m not going to be calling them anymore to invite them. They just don’t seem interested in coming. It’s been three years of invitations, so they know the door is open. It’s up to them to decide if they want to come play or not.”
